More than 60% of a Horse's Body is Muscle.
Muscles that are tight or in a spasm put pressure on the rest of the body’s structure such as tendons, ligaments and bones. This restricts the horses range of movement and causes a reduction in blood flow along with pain which often results in reduced performance levels.
If these spasms are left untreated they will continue to worsen.Equine Massage therapy is one of the ways to release these tight muscles and improve the circulation and performance.
